Here's a code snippet for inserting a (varchar,bytea) tuple.

int write_bytea(const char* pkey, const char* buf, int size)
{
 Oid in_oid[]={1043,17}; /* varchar, bytea */
 const char* params[]={pkey,buf};
 const int params_length[]={strlen(pkey),size};
 const int params_format[]={0,1}; /* text,binary */
 PGresult* res;
 res = PQexecParams(pgconn,  
                    "INSERT INTO tblob(pkey,contents) VALUES ($1,$2)",  
                    sizeof(params)/sizeof(params[0]),
                    in_oid, params, params_length,
                    params_format, 1);
 if (res && PQresultStatus(res)==PGRES_COMMAND_OK) {
  /* success */
 }
}
